In exchange for the board’s approval, the firm agreed to meet regularly with neighbors, city officials and other parties to address concerns over the clinic’s impact.

The company also agreed to add another security guard at the planned site, bringing the total to four. It agreed to add more guards if that’s found to be necessary.

The meeting drew more than 100 people, most hoping to steer the project away from Bergen Square.

Many reacted angrily after learning the city's zoning board had voted in April to allow the clinic to move to the Bergen Square site. That approval came after the zoning board’s attorney warned of a potential discrimination lawsuit if the board tried to block the healthcare facility.

On Tuesday night, a rumble moved through the audience as Edward Sheehan, an attorney for Camden Recovery, noted the planning board was to limit its considerations to the project’s site plan.

“We were under the impression we’d come here to protest,” said Corrinne Jones of Parkside, who was among several people to leave early. “But they’ve already made up their minds.”

Nonetheless, speaker after speaker rose from the audience to demand the facility go elsewhere.
